I don't know why some think 62,000psi is too high for Africa or hot climates anywhere - .270Win, 7mm and .300 mags all of them - Weatherby ctgs. - all run 62,000 to 63,000psi as well as the .416 Taylor andother wildcats - 63,000psi - no problem with correct powders. Even my daughters .260 and my .375 IMP, 9.3x62- they all run 63,000psi - normal pressure. I guess if you say 50,000 to 55,000CUP or CIP, it sounds better.

Agree and have always felt it is a load of BS in most cases..hear the same BS about the .416 Rem--have shot litterally shot hundreds of 416 Rem's in hot weather--both here in the US and in Africa..knock on wood..but no problems what so ever--even with the "cheap" Remington extractors..

Have installed a Sako on it now and the other is a mauser action --but again, no problems with either...
